The coming Census and the unconstitutional questionary, in Mohave county.
Your help as elected official is needed.
by Gianluca Zanna

I pass this along letter on the census for your information, only. I do not counsel anyone. Of course, A direct and literal reading of the U.S. Constitution it seems to me, a non lawyer, is clear as to what the law is: people are legally obligated, only, to cooperate in a head count for political representation purposes.

My response to the Census

I compiled this letter and inserted it into the Census envelope, along with my 2010 census form.
I marked off that ‘02? people reside at this address….

You do what you feel is right for you and for your consciousness.

To Whom it May Concern,
Pursuant to Article I, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution, the only information you are empowered to request is the total number of occupants at this address. My “name, sex, age, date of birth, race, ethnicity, telephone number, relationship and housing tenure” have absolutely nothing to do with apportioning direct taxes or determining the number of representatives in the House of Representatives. Therefore, neither Congress nor the Census Bureau have the constitutional authority to make that information request a component of the enumeration outlined in Article I, Section 2, Clause 3. In addition, I cannot be subject to a fine for basing my conduct on the Constitution because that document trumps laws passed by Congress.
Interstate Commerce Commission v. Brimson, 154 U.S. 447, 479 (May 26, 1894) “Neither branch of the legislative department [House of Representatives or Senate], still less any merely administrative body [such as the Census Bureau], established by congress, possesses, or can be invested with, a general power of making inquiry into the private affairs of the citizen. Kilbourn v. Thompson, 103 U.S. 168, 190. We said in Boyd v. U.S., 116 U. S. 616, 630, 6 Sup. Ct. 524,--and it cannot be too often repeated,--that the principles that embody the essence of constitutional liberty and security forbid all invasions on the part of government and it’s employees of the sanctity of a man’s home and the privacies of his life. As said by Mr. Justice Field in Re Pacific Ry. Commission, 32 Fed. 241, 250, ‘of all the rights of the citizen, few are of greater importance or more essential to his peace and happiness than the right of personal security, and that involves, not merely protection of his person from assault, but exemption of his private affairs, books, and papers from inspection and scrutiny of others. Without the enjoyment of this right, all others would lose half their value.’”

Note: This United States Supreme Court case has never been overturned.

Respectfully,

A Citizen of the United States of America

Facts:
1) The Census has been hijiacked by the executive, under the direct control of Mr. Obama.

Title 13 of the U.S. Code, Chapter 1, Subchapter I, § 2, entitled “Bureau of the Census,” states: “The Bureau is continued as an agency within, and under the jurisdiction of, the Department of Commerce.” Not under the jurisdiction of Obama and Rahm Emanuel, but the Department of Commerce.
please read the facts of Obama taking over the census

2) Article I, Section 2 of the US Constitution gives Congress the right to ENUMERATE
the number of citizens in order to apportion members of congress: "The actual Enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent term of ten years, in such manner as they shall by law direct." Enumerate means "to count, or determine the number of". Congress can COUNT the number of citizens- but it can't demand to know what race we are, how much we earn, how many big screen TVs we own, or similar.
So when I get the census forms, I fill out the first question (the one asking how many people live at my home), then paste a copy of Article 1, Section 2 of the Constitution right below that, along with a statement that I have fulfilled my duty as a citizen by helping them enumerate, and I'm not required to answer any more questions.

Bottom line: I Gianluca Zanna, and many other Mohave County Residents we will refuse to comply with the unconstitutional and invasive questionary of 11 pages of the census 2010. The only answer we owe according to the Constitution is to answer "how many people live in the house".

If the census agent after I have provided the count of how many people live in my household, he/she or they will continue in harrassing me or my family I will dial 911 and press charges for harrassment, transpassing on private property and under the UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES
CHAPTER 13 - CIVIL RIGHTS

§ 241. Conspiracy against rights
If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any inhabitant of any State, Territory, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or
If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured -
They shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results, they shall be subject to imprisonment for any term of years or for life.

§ 242. Deprivation of rights under color of law
Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any inhabitant of any State, Territory, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or to different punishments, pains, or penalties, on account of such inhabitant being an alien, or by reason of his color, or race, than are prescribed for the punishment of citizens, shall be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results shall be subject to imprisonment for any term of years or for life.

Please Sheriff Sheahan, warn your deputies about these potentially coming phone calls in case cited above and remind your deputies about our Constitutional rights (like the 4th and 5th amendment).

More facts for our elected officials...
Our nations Constitution provides for a head count every ten years to ensure all Americans are properly represented. However, after looking at the upcoming questions presented in the “Questions Planned for the 2010 Census and American Community Survey” found at http://2010.census.gov/2010census/ pdf/2010ACSnotebook.pdf you will verify that
The Constitution quite explicitly dictates in Article 1, Section 2, as well as in the modification found in the 14th Amendment, that the purpose of the Census is to help apportion direct taxes and Representatives. I can think of no reason why the government needs to know anything more than the number of people in a home.
I strongly believe the ninth and tenth amendments provide for the protection of the citizens of Arizona from an intrusive Federal Government.
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
I believe I retain the right to be secure in my home, that the contents therein are protected unless I am suspected of performing some act or action which could be harmful to others, in which case a warrant would be required, not a Census, there is no valid reason why I need to provide any other data for the Census.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
The Constitution requires a Census every ten years for the purpose of determining representation ONLY, I can find no other need in the US Constitution for conducting a Census. Therefore, there is nothing else that can or should be added to the Census other than a head count of LEGAL Americans. The power to count the people is clearly given to the Congress, the power to count or track anything else is not.

I am certain that you are aware of precedent in the matter of States resolving to ignore a Federal mandate due to Constitutional concerns – The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798. In these Resolutions each respective state drafted it in defiance of the Aliens and Seditions Act.

We respectfully request the State of Arizona and the Mohave County Sheriff and his deputies to protect our property and Constitutional rights, our families from fines and redress regarding all unnecessary and uncostitutional questions pertaining to the 2010 Census.
